eMac Gets Four Mouse Rating From MacWorld. G4 with CRT Display Is the True Successor to the Original iMac, says reviewer Jason Snell of MacWorld magazine.       He concludes: “The eMac provides what original iMac buyers have wanted all along: a fast, low-cost computer in a rugged enclosure. Its 700MHz G4 processor makes it more suitable for graphics and video work than any of the G3 iMacs.       If you want DVD playback or the elegant design of the flat-panel iMac, the eMac probably won’t move you. But with its beautiful flat CRT display, surprising speed (for an entry-level Mac), and remarkable value, the eMac is the natural successor to one of Apple’s most successful products of all time.” 12:22:47 PM    Add a comment.
